Ep 10 - Daddy Issues - How Our Fathers Shaped Us
-

Written by:
In this episode of The Sunday Meeting, we dive into the messy, complicated, and deeply personal world of daddy issues.
For Cassidy, growing up with a dad who could be happy one minute and angry the next and then losing him a year ago, left a trail of love, fear, and unanswered questions. For Nic, his dad leaving when he was just six weeks old created a different kind of wound: absence.
Together, we talk about how those experiences show up in our relationship today, from triggers in arguments to the way we parent our kids. We also bring in research on how “daddy issues” aren’t just a cliché, but are rooted in attachment theory and the way we learn to love.
Plus, we answer audience questions like:
– Can you really break cycles of abandonment, or just learn to manage them?
– How do you grieve a parent when the relationship was complicated?
– What happens when your partner pays for your dad’s mistakes?
This one is raw, vulnerable, and maybe a little uncomfortable, but it’s exactly why we sit down for The Sunday Meeting.
